Review

'If you are concerned about the health of your structure, there has never been a better manual or blueprint guiding you on how to regain it and maintain it.' --Dr Brian R Clement, The Hippocrates Health Institute, Florida, USA

About the Author

Max Tuck trained in veterinary medicine and comes to all health issues, both human and animal, with a rigorously scientific approach. Now a Hippocrates Institute-trained health educator as well as a practising vet, Max was originally prompted to investigate the importance of nutrition to health by her own collapse with chronic fatigue and Epstein Barr virus more than 20 years ago. Since her 'miraculous' recovery she has run marathons, competed in triathlons and gained her black belt in karate, in addition to managing her punishing dual-role work schedule. Her specialization in bone health followed her mother's diagnosis with osteoporosis.

Love Your Bones is a truly remarkable book. Like no other author, Max Tuck has the ability to explain the science behind a topic, in this case bone health, in an easy to understand and highly readable way. You will find information in this book that you simply won’t find elsewhere, unless you prepared to read through the scientific literature yourself. It’s obvious that Max has spent many years researching the topic, and I regard her as an expert in this field.

In this book Max takes you through all of the aspects that contribute to bone health, including diet, supplements, exercise, vitamins, minerals, acid/alkaline, hormones, mental outlook, and much more. The amount of valuable information in this book is remarkable. Max also explains the conventional treatments, what to avoid, the side effects of prescribed drugs, how bone strength is measured – including a new and exciting technology that you will not have heard of before. All of the factors that contribute to bone loss are also explored - Max leaves no stone unturned. If you want to prevent or reverse osteoporosis follow the advice in this book.

This book also explores the vast amount of misinformation that is out there on topics such as calcium, dairy, meat, and the prescribed drugs used to treat osteoporosis. Max obviously has a deep appreciation of the complexity of the human body, and she exposes the mainstream stance on osteoporosis for what it is, overly simplistic and short sighted. There is so much conflicting information out there that it’s often hard to know who to trust, well, you can trust this book. Max explains everything in great detail and with great clarity.

This book is for everyone, no matter where you are with your current diet and lifestyle. It has been written in such a way that it is readable and understandable by anyone, indeed, it is a pleasure to read. This book gives many ways to upgrade your diet and lifestyle, and more importantly, Max explains exactly _why_ these changes work on a cellular level. I would go as far as to say that if you follow all of Max’s advice, you will never need to think about osteoporosis again.

Time and again in this book, Max reminds us that the answer is always holistic. There is no one thing that is the answer on its own, but always a combination of upgrades to diet and lifestyle with everything working in synergy. If you follow the advice in this book you will not only eliminate any problems with your bones, but you will be fitter and healthier in every respect.
